Kitty Louise Crossingham

She was born 1919 in London (as Kitty Louise Row) and moved to Australia in 1949. Presume she has died, and most likely in Adelaide. Not on Ryerson. Any way of finding an obituary etc.

Regards
John

Hello
Just to narrow it down a bit
Kitty returned from New Caledonia in 9th Jan 1968
She was a school teacher
Intending to live at 27 Montacute  Road ,Campbelltown South Australia
ship Noumea
Frederick and their daughter were with her.

In 1975 she expressed a wish to become an Australian citizen and started the process.

The obvious place to look would be the Trove website of Australian newspapers but I'm having trouble getting it to load.

There is a book of verse by a Kitty Louise CROSSINGHAM manuscript dated  1998:

Whilst trove is an excellent resource, most entries are earlier than 1954.

Nice article about their arrival in 1949

The Adelaide cemeteries free search facility is not working and they advise sending an email for a look up for Kitty Crossingham.
GenealogySA has Frederick Crossingham Deceased Estate 1971 but you need to pay to see that.
